Returns the difference between two arrays, after applying the provided function to each array element of both.
Create a `Set` by applying `fn` to each element in `b`, then use `Array.prototype.map()` to apply `fn` to each element in `a`, then `Array.prototype.filter()`
```js
const differenceBy = (a, b, fn) => {
const s = new Set(b.map(fn));
return a.map(fn).filter(el => !s.has(el));
};
```
```js
differenceBy([2.1, 1.2], [2.3, 3.4], Math.floor); // [1]
differenceBy([{ x: 2 }, { x: 1 }], [{ x: 1 }], v => v.x); // [2]
```
